Thermaltake SL-B220SFX Replacement

[Soldier101]

So, we have a device that is installed in one of those Thermaltake Shuttle Cases. The case looks like CLICK HERE TO SEE

I need a replacement powersupply for the case. The current installed powersupply is a Thermaltake SL-B220SFX. Little 220w power supply that is roughly 5 inches wide, 4 inches deep and 2.5 inches tall.

What would you guys suggest for finding a replacement powersupply for this? It needs to be the same size obviously to fit in the case with the components.

It's a regular SFX, so any SFX power supply. For example.

Something that should be noted is that the SFX standard doesn't specify six mounting holes, but only three. Most PSUs have those three holes mirrored so they can be installed upside down, but if a PSU doesn't have all six holes, it will sit very loosely in your case because it only has holes for the screws in the corners from what I can tell, which means you could only fasten two screws.
The PSU necere linked fortunately does have six holes, so it will fit perfectly fine.

That doesn't make sense at all. If there are six holes, that means the case or PSU maker gives you the option of installing the PSU in two directions, at your discretion.

Yes, normally it does. But this case doesn't follow the SFX standard for all mounting holes, it only has holes on the corners of the PSU. So when you have a PSU that only has three mounting holes, you'll only be able to use the two in the corners.
Maybe you'd be able to do it with a large washer, though.

You are right. I even checked the (original?) Apex models as well as the Rosewill rebrand. Fail.
